I joined Toastmasters for 1 specific reason – I wanted to be able to do presentations for work without using notes! The great thing about Toastmasters is that it is a place to practice, make mistakes and learn, in a real live environment with the support of great people. Not only have I learnt how to present without notes but I have also learnt how to structure a speech that delivers impact, how to get the most out of power point and other visual aids and how to use body language effectively to get my point across. It has been, and continues to be, a great resource for improving my skills in a fun and friendly atmosphere.
